Filmmaker Don Palathara has said that the decision to hold the International Film Festival of Kerala (IFFK) in four zones despite the pandemic is admirable.
Palathara, whose films 1965, Central Travancore and Santhoshathinte Onnam Rahasyam (Joyful Mystery) are being screened at the fest, said that the screening of films at four places across the State augured well for several parallel films.
